427 The Mother of the Blackthorns descends (1/2)
Such a ludicrous massacre didn’t persist for long, and concluded in roughly 10 plus minutes. The battlefield lands were littered with endless carcassess that rapidly dissolved into the ground like snow. Instead, the gradually distinct outcome caused Sheyan to widened his eyes in amazement.
Within the battlefield spanning tens of square kilometres, a sole zergling rampantly lurched towards a badly beaten slinger, before cleaving through its throat with deadly sharp claws; feasting on its flesh and blood. Finally, like a wolf, the zergling released a penetrative howl towards the high heavens!!!
Witnessing such a scene, Sheyan couldn’t help but turn to observe that fatty bug; recalling their previous endeavours, where it was merely a Black-iron lord. Instead, the nightmare imprint priorly notified him that it was truly a Silver lord now…….if this outcome was truly his meticulous arrangement, then such a display of perfect warfare understanding, could only be described as truly frightening! It was no wonder the Blackthorn Overmind harbored the ambitions of replacing the era of the Blade Empress.
“Whether it was a coincidence, the next battle will reveal it.” Sheyan couldn’t help but mumbled to himself. Having witnessed the entire sequence of events, Reef finally remarked earnestly. “I reckon it is time Mother Nature Eywa unveil her true strength.”
“Right.” Sheyan suddenly recalled something. “Where are the Takji clansmen?”
Mogensha smiled bleakly. “They fled after witnessing the beast horde.”
Sheyan responded indifferently.
“Their beliefs revolve around Mother Nature Eywa. Upon witnessing the assembled beast tide of their old granny, they could only flee as far as they could. I hadn’t anticipate that a constructing arachnid base would sufficed to instigate such a beast horde. This debt must be settled in the future.”
After speaking, Sheyan was unable to control his urge to advise the Blackthorn Overmind.
“The next wave will surely be the true test. Let me transfer all my creature reports I have acquired to you.”
However at this instant, Sheyan suddenly became aware of an oddity; it was as though the surrounding organ structures were all radiating with streams of black shimmering brilliance. If one were to describe the organ structures of the arachnid base previously as a semi-finished room, then their state right now, was like a newly refurbished room inlaid with ornamental ceramic tiles. One could evidently sense the breeding rate of arachnid lifeforms speeding up, and the incubating rate of organ structures propelling by a notch!
Within a split second, that class ‘III’ lair that was a substitute for the Mother Nest suddenly inflated, swelling to a height of nearly 200 metres; its periphery spouted forth with 8 incredibly obnoxious and coarse fleshy red tentacles, repeatedly dancing through the air. Moreover, its distinct exterior prune veins swelled rampantly as though it had hyperemia. Strange hexagon shaped, constituted with high purity pandora crystals, suddenly emerged from its already originally grand and malevolent organ roof!
Observing such an elevated momentum, its exterior appearance amplified with sinister savageness. Within this instant, don’t even mention about a Hometree with an altitude of 300 metres; only the sacred lands of the na'vi, the Tree of Souls, could be comparable!
“The Mother of the Blackthorns has migrated over, right?” Mogensha couldn’t help but ask. As his words faded, the voice of the Mother of the Blackthorns resonated from the depths of their heart. 《 My friends, I express gratitude for your assistance. I can feel a tremendous mystical force from afar currently amassing various lifeforms in its bid to eradicate us 》
At this moment, Sheyan suddenly felt perplexed and swung round. Instead, he realized that massive toothy and fierce Nydus Worm was withering at a rate that even the naked eye could capture. He immediately gasped in shock.
“O Mother of the Blackthorn, what is wrong with the Nydus Worm?”
The Mother of the Blackthorn calmly replied.
《 The Nydus Worm connects two converging points of space, but in reality, it is of one body. Once the Nydus Worm on the other side is dead, the Nydus Worm here would naturally wither away. 》
Sheyan anxiously questioned.
“But……”
The Blackthorn Overmind interrupted him.
《 We’ve completely abandoned our base at that side. In reality, the ore mine we occupied there could at most support our harvesting for only 2 more months. However, there are wholly 4 hostile arachnid tribes situated around us. If we hadn’t left behind adequate forces to resist them, solely relying on the defensive Sunken and Spore Colonies wouldn’t be sufficient to last us for even 8 hours. 》
“8 hours?” Sheyan doubtfully inquired.
The Mother of the Blackthorns patiently explained.
《 Conjuring a Nydus Worm requires the ability of quantum space folding, which leaves behind traces of meddling within the cosmic universe. If we had been unable to drag for 8 hours, the space vortex would not regain stability in time; allowing the possibility of others to perceive our location that, and seek out that we’ve migrated to this heaven like planet. Yet once we can drag for 8 hours, even if the Blade Empress had personally arrived, it would be utterly impossible to identify even tiny hints and clues. 》
Sheyan laughed sourly.
“But…….you can even feel it. That tremendous mystical force is currently amassing her creatures in preparation for war. Without spawning and supplying reinforcements from the Nydus Worm, how would you hold ground here. Its offensive tempo accelerates ferociously with each wave, and could even pinpoint your weaknesses.”
